Subject and purpose of work
The purpose of the publication is to present two sustainable farming systems in Poland - the system of integrated production and organic farming in 2010 and 2020.
Materials and methods
Changes in the number of farms over the decade are analyzed. The study used statistical data published by the Central Statistical Office.
Results
A descriptive method was used, combined with the use of simple dynamics indicators, and a concise review of the literature on the subject was carried out. A decrease in the number of organic farms in 2020 compared to 2010 was noted, while the number of farms using the method of integrated agricultural production increased slightly. A large regional variation in the analyzed farming systems was also noted.
Conclusions
The results lead to the conclusion that sustainable agriculture is not recording the desired growth.
